An unarmed man who was shot in the back by an Indianapolis police officer has received one of the largest settlements in the city's history.
The officer who shot him has been the subject of more than a half-dozen other citizen complaints and two other pending federal lawsuits. Nonetheless, he still works for the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department.
Indianapolis last month agreed to pay $2.15 million to Gerald Cole to settle a lawsuit stemming from an October 2016 incident. Officer James Perry shot Cole twice during an altercation with Cole and his brother. The bullets left Cole partially paralyzed and facing a lifetime of medical bills that are expected to total millions of dollars.
"He doesn't really have the potential to regain the ability to walk, or live on his own or do many things he could before," said Richard Waples, Cole's attorney. "His life is forever changed."
The massive payout to Cole suggests city officials were cognizant that his account of what led to the shooting — which differed from the officer's story — could elicit a much higher award if the case went to a jury.
